Cash Flow Game
How the game relates to real life

Why is the cash flow game important?

Cash Flow is the key to long term wealth.

Because it's not cash that creates real wealth, it's the ability to produce it - over and over again - that does.

The actual creation of capital and equity is also fueled by income streams through the ability to harness the factors of production through acquisition and management.

So being able to acquire capital equipment and income producing assets requires continuous streams of cash.



A Good Education Doesn't Mean You'll Be a Millionaire


Most of us work our rear ends off for many years putting our labor and energy into improving other peoples' financial positions. Most of us were taught growing up that making money takes hard work and long hours and a good education.

The more I am around people who are really wealthy, the more apparent what a fallacy that statement is.

In fact the opposite is true.

The way to achieve real wealth is to put money, real estate and businesses to work for you making you money, instead of you working for money.

Robert Kiyosaki says you don't really have a business yet if you have to go there everyday and work. You merely have a glorified job.

One of the best ways to create a continuous stream of cash flow is to buy income producing real estate and create 'passive streams of income' - monthly cash flow from real estate investing.

Kiyosaki actually made his second fortune investing in apartment buildings.

We have played Kiyosaki's Cash Flow® game over the last two years from time to time. But recently, we have increased the frequency.



Get Your Own Cash Flow Game


We are beginning to recognize it's value as a teaching tool.

In the process, we have learned why his game is so valuable and why he says, "the more you play this game, the richer you will become."

It's simple and yet very subtle and powerful. The subconscious mind does not distinguish between a game and real life.

In this way, playing Cash Flow teaches the player an awareness of what it 'feels like':


  • to be penalized for spending money on things that aren't important when it doesn't fit the budget

  • to get rewards for saving and taking intelligence risk with 'good debt' instead of bad debt

  • how to manage a balance sheet to maximize cash flow and passive income

  • to get out of the rat race and become wealthy


  • Play The Cash Flow Game To Win



    It is a powerful and fun game that is also a solid educational tool. It trains through repetition, the value of prudent financial management and how to effectively use cash flow as a tool to become independently wealthy - almost like paper trading commodities prior to actually investing in them.

    The more we play the game the more we find it to be an effective psychological simulation of the real life experience of success.

    And the cool part is that it's lots of fun to play, and very creative in many ways. From our experience, it really works and we highly recommend playing it frequently.


    How To Manage Cash Flow



    Kiyosaki says he invented the cash flow game because he was a terrible student and hated accounting. To him it was terribly boring - compounded by the fact that he didn't like studying anyway. He felt that if other people shared his feelings, he could develop a method to teach the principles of accounting - and particularly - the skill of knowing how to read a balance sheet - that would be fun.

    He felt that if people had fun doing something, they would do more of it and eventually develop the skills in spite of themselves - almost by default.

    This would ultimately enable a significant number of people to develop a very important and fundamental business skill - understanding and managing investments through understanding balance sheets - and how income streams really work.

    Until this time, managing passive streams of income and cash flow has been primarily the realm of the wealthy.

    The Cash Flow Game is a success and the game's primary objective is 'getting out of the rat race.' During play, this is accomplished by managing your investments and balance sheet until the point where your passive income exceeds all your monthly expenses.

    In the real world, this is the primary definition of financial freedom - where all your monthly expenses are covered without having to work.

    We recommend that all real estate investors play this game on a regular basis.
